The weight (W) of an object is the product of its mass (m) in kilograms and g, the acceleration due to gravity in meters/second2. If the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters/second2, find the corresponding weights for these masses. mass in kilograms = {22.1, 33.5, 41.3, 59.2, 78} The weights (in newtons) for the given masses are .

Multiply each weight by the appropriate conversion factor:

9.8 m
(22.1 kg) * --------------- = 216.6 newtons

Do the other problems in precisely the same way.
